Center for Community Health

The Center for Community Health was established by the University
of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) to develop and expand
academic-community health partnerships dedicated to improving the health
of our community. It represents a new model of institutional commitment to community health that focuses on prevention.

In a pivotal “match making” role, the Center connects
URMC faculty, students and staff with community partners. Our shared
goals are to increase community services and community-based research
to improve health one person, one program, and one policy at a time.
